This is going to be a long season for Kent St. It is unusual for a team to bring back so few starters from the previous squad. Kent St. has no returning starters on offense, and just four on defense. It gets worse than that. Kent St. has to come up with replacement starters from just 32 returning lettermen. They were obliterated 56-6 last week by Central Florida, and I expect something similar here vs. an SEC school in Arkansas. Arkansas forced five turnovers last week in a tune-up against Western Carolina. They ended up winning 56-13. I think this one could be worse because SEC teams have a lot of depth and as the score gets out of hand the replacements for Arkansas still have a big edge as the game gets out of hand. I like Arkansas in this one.
